E (Existing Status)

The listed IP address exists in the network. All devices will receive this status to indicate where NetMRI first discovered the address.

P (Fingerprint Status)

If NetMRI is configured to use fingerprinting, device fingerprint status is listed in this column.

R (Reached Status)

Shows whether NetMRI has sent a packet to the device and received a reply, establishing that the device is reachable. Devices are typically tested for reachability through SNMP and the CLI, usually with an ICMP Ping operation.

S (SNMP Credentials Status)

Indicates the status of the SNMP credential guessing process.

SC (SNMP Collection Status)

Shows the status of SNMP data collection for the device. Success indicates that a device successfully allows data collection through SNMP. If this is not successful, check the S field to see whether the correct credential is given.

C (CLI Credentials Status)

Displays the status of the CLI credential guessing process.

CC (Config Collection Status)

Indicates whether a device supports command-line connectivity and whether the configuration collection is successful. If this is not successful, check the C field to see whether the correct credential is given.

G (Device Group Status)

Shows the status of the device group generation process. Success indicates that a device has been assigned to at least one group.

DB (Discovery Blackout Status)

Indicates whether or not the selected device is in a Discovery Blackout period. Two states are possible, In Blackout and Not in Blackout.

CB (Change Blackout Status)

Indicates whether or not the selected device is in a Change Blackout period. Two states are possible, In Blackout and Not in Blackout.

Status

Licensed devices are listed as such. Unlicensed devices are non-network devices or devices for which NetMRI license limits have been exceeded. Unmanaged devices are those which NetMRI will discover, but not manage.

Type

Lists the device type as determined by NetMRI.

Last Timestamp

Date and time the data in the device records were updated or verified as unchanged.

Last Action

The last action performed by NetMRI upon device after discovery takes place. For example, Device Groups: Successfully assigned to device groups indicates that the device was successfully discovered and added to a device group.

Last Seen

The date and time when the device was last seen on the network. For example, reading the IP address in the ARP table from a router.

First Seen

Date and time when the listed device was first detected by the NetMRI appliance.

...

The management collector is assigned to a device using the algorithm only once. However, you can change the management collector manually in the Device Viewer. To open the Device Viewer, click the device IP address. The Management Status page of the Device Viewer opens, showing the current device status on the management collector. To learn how to change the management collector, see Manually Changing Management Collector.

Note
titleNote
If , in discovery settings, you delete a range containing a device that has a "duplicate" on another collector, the device becomes licensed again on the other collector.
